Because Ben Monreal is in physics, a bunch of us got
to take the cast of the Tony-award-winning play Copenhagen out
to dinner one night (May 14) after the show. Seated, center: Len
Cariou, winner of the Tony award for originating the title role in
Sweeney Todd. Over his shoulder: Mariette
Hartley, Emmy award winner (I won't tell you for what). At far
left, Hank
Stratton. |

MIT's been having a lot of housing-related problems
recently, some exacerbated by their decision to end the 33-year-old
institution of freshman rush. On the day of the last-ever freshman
rush (8/25/01), a number of hacks
went up to commemorate the occasion. One was an addition to the
inscription on the Building 10 facade. |
 |
The color's off, because the concrete sample used to
choose the paint was unweathered. The intent was for it to look as
though these letters had been carved into the concrete facade itself.
--At least I assume that was the intent, because of course I had
nothing to do with this illicit act myself. So goes my official story. |

The presence of these perfectly innocent bystanders in
this photo can only be attributed to the merest coincidence. |

Fourth of July celebration, on Mem Drive, 2002. We
look this loony because we're all balancing on a two-by-four. Among
other reasons, I suppose. |

My first blacksmithing project, starting from maybe a
foot of 3/4"-square steel bar. It's unlovely in
very many ways, but I learned so much that would make my next one so
much better. Still it's kinda cool. |
